Shooting down a Junkers 88



Letter from Keith to his mother, June 19 1944.
'Mary wrote me a very nice long letter ... she seems awfully nice & invited me down to their place when I get leave, the last letter too was from Phillip, he expects to move in soon, he shot down a Ju 88 over Caen on the second day of the invasion, he says it turned on its back & made a power dive into the deck, ... I think he must be a pretty good pilot.'



Here's a little tune about the Junkers 88, Germany's most prolific bomber plane.
